When he thought about how impressive and glorious it would be to become a major general, his excitement began to build. With that, he hurried out into the command center, where Zhao Long and the others clasped hands in salute.
Waving his hand in grand fashion, he tried to sound as heroic as possible as he said, "Come, my brothers. Join me at the pagoda to witness... my promotion to major general!"
Zhao Long's eyes went wide, but he quickly began to send messages to call everyone together. Before long, all 1,000 members of Bai Xiaochun's regiment were notified, and were hurrying over.
"Brothers," he said loudly, "once I become a major general, we'll have more meat to eat and more alcohol to drink!" Then he flew into the air toward the pagoda.
